Central Texas Marine Machine Shop Recommendation.

[fishingTexas]

Hi, I lost a cylinder on my 82 140 Evinrude. I've tore it all down, and decided to get all 4 cylinders bored out and start fresh. My problem is that I've found it very difficult to find anyone that can or will bore out a blind hole. Does anyone have a recommendation for a marine machine shop in central Texas?

Thanks for your help,

I recently used JD's machine works out in bee caves, they did a great job on my 89 90hp v4:

Hey, just wanted to give an update a year later . I ended up going with Performance Outboards in Spicewood. A guy named Chris out there did an excellent job with the machine work. I ended up buying all the parts through him, instead of on ebay. It was a few dollars more, but it was real nice to have someone I could call and ask questions during the rebuild. I've put about 10 hours on the motor since the rebuild and it is running better than ever.
